Dragapult ex

Dragapult ex has appeared in several sets: Twilight Masquerade (TWM 130), Prismatic Evolutions (PRE 73) and Ascended Heroes (ASC 160). It is the same card every time — it plays the same, only the artwork and the price change. Here is what it does once it is on the table.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

WHAT IT HAS GOING FOR IT

  • Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.
  • Dragapult ex / Dusknoir runs it in 24 of the 24 lists we have read, seen across 22 different tournaments.
  • No Weakness printed on the card. Nothing doubles up the damage it takes.

WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR

  • It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes two Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.
  • It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Drakloak to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.
  • Mark H, and that is the letter the next rotation takes away. After that you will not be able to play it in Standard.

You've just read a page about the game. We can do far more with one match.

Everything above is about the game in general. The thing we're really good at is one single match: yours. When a game ends, Pokémon TCG Live leaves you a log — the written record of everything that happened, turn by turn. Paste it here and we'll replay each of your decisions hundreds of times, then tell you which one actually cost you the game.

It's free and there's no account to make. Your log stays in your browser: your browser is what replays the game.
